It’s been a long time since I have sat down and tried to write a poem, although I used to write them a lot when I was younger. I had the spur of the moment idea to write a poem completely off the top of my head, right now, with no preparation…just for fun and to see what comes of it. Not sure if it’s going to be any good or not, but it was just an idea I had. So here goes nothing!

Awww, that’s so sweet! 🙂
Thanks for being so nice! I don’t know how to publish poems….I tried to publish a very short one to one of those mailing list thingies when I was little and they picked it to be in some kind of book but you had to pay a fee, so I said forget it….I’ve never tried to since then.

My husband told me it sounded like a rap….I got a good laugh out of that! I couldn’t see myself rapping but sometimes I think of a poem as a rap in a way when I am thinking of writing one.
Thanks for the compliment! Maybe I will try to write poems more often!

Funny what your husband said about your poem sounding like rap. It does have a nice rhythm to it, I think that’s why. Well, maybe not a rap song, but I really see some good music to go with your lyrics to tell a personal story.

Daaaaaaang, this is amazing! I can’t believe you wrote this in 30 minutes!! I wish I could write poems as well as you. I loved what you said in the poem, wow, I want to save this and reread it again and again! Amazing! Seriously!
